International Asteroid Day in 2021

It’s Asteroid Day! The vast majority of meteorites originate from the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter, and are the oldest material we have to study the early solar system. This is a CT fly-through of the Murchison meteorite that fell in Australia in 1969! @naturalsciences https://t.co/RCBvQdVYWh

Today is #WorldAsteroidDay. Asteroid Day is the anniversary of the Tunguska impact over Siberia, which occurred in 1908. Tunguska is the largest asteroid to affect the earth in modern times. To commemorate the day, Howard printed a cut that is out of this world. #AsteroidDay https://t.co/t1rNdduhHx
